Gaming Regulations
 

Please reconsider this proposal as the direction you are taking it in will impact the local and state charities that we contribute to.  The impact locally maybe that mom who needs medicine for a sick child or it could be help with an electric bill to keep a house for an elderly person warm.  The impact at the State level could be a charity organization that is helping children with various ailments or help parents get to and from appointments.  

We are a People helping People organization and the proposed changes to the gaming laws would impact our ability to do so.  Most of us are volunteers but we do have some paid employees.  Help us help our local communities and the state charities by taking the change to 10-20% or better yet lower than that.  The more we make the more we are able to give away.
